The AP’s Fred Frommer writes:

“Sen. Norm Coleman is planning to make a statement on a lawsuit that claims his friend and donor funneled $75,000 to an insurance company that employs the senator’s wife.

“The Coleman re-election campaign has called the allegations ‘baseless and false,’ and ‘an 11th-hour attack.’ The senator’s statement was planned for 10 a.m. today in Moorhead.”
